No garden is complete without this star performer! Miss Kim is a dwarf lilac ideal for natural hedging, massing, or used as an accent or specimen. Stout stems clothed in mildew-resistant dark green leaves spread at a moderate rate into a uniformly rounded form - with no pruning needed! In May, a profusion of sweetly fragrant whitish-blue clusters bloom at the branch tips. Fall leaves usually turn interesting shades of burgundy and yellow, which is really good for a lilac. Lilacs form next spring's flower buds on this year's growth so make sure you trim within 6 weeks after flowering so as not to cut off next year's flower buds. Quite adaptable to different soils, provided they're not soggy.
